ABSTRACT

This chapter provides an overview of the main advantages provided

by planar undoped channel fully depleted SOI devices. The more

important characteristics of this technology are its excellent elec-

trostatic integrity, drivability, withinwafer variability and scalability.

All of these properties are discussed through silicon data and TCAD

analyses. Solutions for multiple VT are also reported. Finally, the

scalability of FDSOI can be ensured by its evolution from planar

towards nanowires. We discuss the dimensional control on both

single and arrays of gate-all-around nanowires transistors with

high-κ and metal gates thanks to carrier mobility and interface

measurements.
